@Lanius1984 Had the same big downshift to blow the engine after 3/4 of an endurance race at Sonoma:ouch:
@m3lover1 I have had some driver put up an insanely low Q time in several events. However, the same driver never runs that quickly in the race. It is a problem when you are trying to get that bonus point and stay close in the Championship Points.:(

I'm lucky enough to not have that happen in quali, only practice sessions and one time for the race (lucky this series don't have extra points for fastest race time).
 
Me neither but I suspect it's to do with how often those other games access the network. My Forza Horizon 2 crashed a lot when I played it and I think that's a very network intensive game even in singleplayer

You'd be better off trying to get an answer from the people who program the games though
Given recent events, perhaps they're no wiser than us :lol:

Put in a career race 2 at Watkins Glen in GT3 with the Audi R8. 88% length and 90% AI settings. I'm pretty sure the race ended on lap 23/24. I was able to come within a second of the guy infront of me in the last few turns of lap 23. Then I crossed the line and the race was over, it took me minute to realise what happened ha ha ha.

I think I know where my lap went then... I didn't see any report similar to my own in last couple of pages, but I was racing at Donington last in a Formula Rookie career race. I got pole position and then lead away from the start. I completed the first lap and half the second, only to see I was running 16th out of 16. When I paused, I saw that my sector 1 time was 1min 45 seconds long and I was still on Lap 1!

I restarted the race and won it after that (Not a big problem, I wasn't long into the race!) and then it did exactly the same thing in race 2! Nothing strange had occurred within Sector 1, lap 1 in either race. I just pulled away from the grid and stayed on the circuit throughout.

EDIT: As a separate note, anyone noticed the physics fail when AI cars crash? Will try to get a video tonight, it looks completely strange, like the wrong end of the car is rotating around...
 
Geeeerrrr.... project cars and I are having another domestic. Last week I was having trouble with the game sending my PS4 into rest mode. I deleted the game install and the day one patch and reinstalled both. Updated to 1.4 and we re-entered the honeymoon phase to live a life full of bliss and happiness together. Or so I thought. Tonight my PS4 was sent into rest mode twice while racing (sigh). At least Arkham Knight comes out soon, that will give me something to play while project cars gets it's self worked out.
 
Has anyone had their wheel shake side to side by it self before starting a race- not calibrating but just turning and turning 20 degrees each way? Only way to stop it was come out the game restart and it has been fine since. (first time it has happened and only on pcars not DC) Apologies if it has been posted before or wrong thread but I wasn't sure where to post it.
 
On PS4:
In career for the Formula B race at Hockenheimring, the tires become permanently red at 453-455 degrees after a pitstop. The car also is continuously on the throttle and even goes forward in neutral without even touching the controller.

yes, although not since patch 1.4
 
In the Ginetta GT3 in career....audio is totally missing - i cant hear the other cars at all,also no collision noise or tyre screech from my car.

Is this a known glitch?

Leading the race, last lap, as I enter the second chicane a poltergeist sneaks up on me and flips my car up in the air ending my race. I wasn't sure what had happened until I watched the replay because THE DAMN CAMERA WAS STUCK IN BUMPER MODE.
 
PS4 - Career mode - GT3 - Silverstone GP - SLS

Whenever i go in the pits and want to add extra fuel, i leave the pits with the same amount of fuel as before!!! This has meant having to restart the race as i don't have enough fuel. The only way to get around this is to have 60 litres of fuel for the whole race! and if i wanted to do 100% race distance I wouldn't be able to. I've racked up 90 hours on 100% but have not yet encountered this until now.

Is this a bug? or am i doing something wrong?
 
Love this game but...........since the 1.4 update , every time i exit a race it shuts the whole goddam game down , so i have to relaunch it from the Desktop Icon (PC Version)

You can't refuel in the GT3 career mode during pit stops. 60l of fuel is enough for the 1st race but not for the 2nd. You have to edit your tuning setup before the race and increase the amount of fuel you start the race with. I find that 90l of fuel is more than enough for the 2nd race.

This. What I do is in the practice sessions, or quali if I forgot, I'll change my motec display to the fuel display and run 5-6 laps consecutively, and see what the average liter/lap is and just multiply that with the number of laps and add maybe 2-3 l on top for headroom if I run off track or something

Thanks man, a bad oversight by me not (not reading the rules)!

Whatever car
Whatever track
Setups change when racing in Quick Race Weekend(BUMP STOP)
Only in race ,not in practice or qualifying .
 
Well this is really annoying.

Stuck on Project Cars today and the game kept freezing.

I decided to uninstall than re Install the game again (This is X Box One btw)

The game is working much better now, HOWEVER, The Limited edition Car Pack wont Install

at 99% I get a message saying "Installation stopped".

This is extremely frustrating as I paid £3.99 for this pack and I don't expect to have to deal with this.

Beyond Annoying.
 
Man, what the hell is with this game? Now my game is stuttering every couple seconds no matter the mode I'm playing. Like the game hitches for a second and then continues on. It's pretty much unplayable now. (Xbone version)
 
Sooo... I have ranted about PCARS sending my PS4 into rest mode many times. Turns out it wasn't PCARS at all. I just put in Arkham Knight and it has sent it into rest mode and shut it down and I havent even started playing yet. Glad I got that extended warranty!

Had the exact same problem.

I uninstalled than reinstalled the game.

It works better now, however my limited edition car pack won't load now..

Getting really fed up with this.

Yeah, SMS can suck it, 4 years in development and they release an unpolished turd, but wait there's more - they're already collecting money for the sequel and the first game is nowhere near finished. Even vanilla GT5/6 were better than this pos.
